I never needed to be in a pro-AI bubble to dismiss bullshit; I wrote my capstone Philosophy paper on AI and Existentialism back in 2014.
I am dismissing the neo-luddites because they are stupid and wrong, not because I am in a pro-AI bubble.

If you don't want to be bothered to argue your points, and this place truly chaps your ass to the degree it does, why even waste your time commenting at all when, according to you, there's a more fun place with bigger brains that-a-way, as far as you're concerned? points
I mean, it takes more energy and effort to be angry and annoyed than to just move on and leave us luddites in the dust.
I feel like I'm living in some kind of bizzarro world now when I read anything AI related on HN. It's insane.
Or: they actually understand the tech, and see its limitations. Unlike wide-eyed neophytes and zealots.
Tech forum doesn't mean "uncritically accept and love any and all technology".
Oh, and they don't find the need to sling insults like monkey sling feces just because someone doesn't agree with them.
I'm sure you super qualified rando's on HN know and understand the tech and know its limitations better than the Google engineers actually making the stuff.
Real ripe coming from a guy who can't even refactor a few lines of code correctly with an AI.
I couldn't roll my eyes any harder.
You could foster that high-level dialogue you seem to value so much by trying to better articulate your view so that the plebs understand, kinda like I suggested just there. Ya know, "be the change you want to see in the world" and all that, but okay...
